The intention of the present study is to review and compare the effect of various well-studied alloying elements on the microstructure and soft magnetic properties of the Fe-based amorphous/nanocrystalline system. The state-of-the-art Fe-based amorphous/nanocrystalline alloys have been developed bec...
